Here's some progress: Push bar is almost complete! I cut the crash beam mounts off.. *drilled the spot welds* http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l180/yasafusa/Offroad%20Subaru%20Legacy%20ZL2/IMAG0624.jpg I then attached the braces to the car, welded a bar between them to locate the pieces while I've ...

Can I hang out at your place on the weekends? RE: the alignment pin removal. You could weld a stud, or something else, to the remainder of the pin to attach a slide hammer to. If the remainder of the pin isn't too deep in the hole, of course. Hehe, well, it's my buddy's shop, but people are definit...

Hehe, thanks! Well, it's going for sure, one step at a time..

I was talking about the radiator, since it seems you'r talking about laying it back for clearance, you could see multiple benefits with ducting. oh hehe, yeah, that's what I meant, I was having a bit of a brainfart then... My gasket and seal sets came in, here's the car so far: 1. Clean up all burs...

Not that it's a concern with this build, but you should also improve the cooling efficiency and reduce drag by doing this kind of md, blocking off the grille, and ducting the air through the bottom, through the radiator, and out a large hood vent, like the rally car uses. Yeah, if I went with a ral...

-possibly relocate radiator to improve approach angle WRC Top mount style? http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v26/Fatmanscooby/aaaa1.jpg Hard to see from this pic (its the best I could find), but the rad mounts directly under the i/c. Hmmm, that looks good! *scratches chin* yes.. yes, that's quite s...

So the process for the lifters is wet sand the tops to be rounded then polish them smooth? I watched the video and that seems to be what you did. Yup, I've a bit of experience doing metal and mild porting work, so I know what to look for... Not causing flat spots during the wet sanding part is cruc...

I'm glad the vehicle's coming along nicely :D And those seat covers are BA. Not cheap though :/ http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Jeep-Front-GEAR-Seat-Cover-Smittybilt-Tan-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem35a87baaacQQitemZ230459943596QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories Yup, not cheap, but one i...

Yeah. Pretty sure mine will get on board with it if I sell the RS. And camping can be fun :D Yup, this thing will be a camping machine! So it should be quite fun, but daily drivable too! Progress: I've cleaned up my engine, tidied up the HLA bits and then installed a badly needed pair of valve cove...

PM'ed

I have one on my STi along with UEL headers, so it still maintains that scooby rumble I very much enjoy it!

Last June, I pulled out a FWD Saab 5spd out of the Yuma dunes... HE ROASTED his clutch- buring his car and I just hooked up my tow strap and gave him a nice even pull and it pulled right back onto the road with my STi, though he ALMOST hit me.. yeesh! I have a picture somewhere of him stuck, but not...

The key's cut-code is indicated via a stamp on the pass. side lock cyl. Also, you can get it via a VIN from Subaru, provided you have proof of ownership like those mentioned above... If you dont have original locks and want to keep the same key, which is slightly expensive in most places, as long as...

I have a set of pre-facelift fenders.... Still looking? $160 plus shipping to US

Lol, mine still isn't And she's never slept in a tent before either, she just allows me my car hobby/addiction! So this will be interesting

Still looking for the left rear?

Price update bump!

Do you own that garage? Everything you're doing looks like fun. I wish I had a place like that that I could work and I wish I knew how to weld...that'd help. There's so much stuff like that I would be doing with a spare Legacy or Impreza. I want to sell my 98 RS and make an offroad Legacy Wagon or ...

Wow! Thank you! I am surprised really, I've a few people that have commented, but that's it. So far, so good on it. Things should happen a little faster, I've a job again! :P It gives me a bit more momentum really, to know people like it! Do you own that garage? Everything you're doing looks like f...

Oh, believe me, I've been watching your progress. I'm pretty freakin jealous of your car too haha I've actually been wanting to build an offroad machine and I've been looking at yours for ideas. I love the spare tire over the trunk. Frees up a ton of space. I've been wanting to make a rear tire swi...

Sorry about all the delays, I'm not making excuses, it's just I've had almost NO "extra" money since about Dec... I was hoping to get a job here soon, but I start my new job MONDAY! HAHA My molding stuffs and fiberglass table has just been sitting there... I wish I could turn a profit maki...

Update: I found out why it stopped driving and why there was a noise coming from the gearbox... The torque converter's flex plate broke.. It just twisted the center out of it! So when the only thing connecting the engine to trans was the torque converter's alignment pin- in the crank, it TWISTED it ...

I'm working on a front push-bar and light set for my Legacy as well..
